If you require one AND make it very difficult to obtain, it is suppression. In the states that do it here, they go hand in hand, including closing offices where you can get an ID in the areas where people they don't want voting live.
I can't find the article anymore, does anyone have a bookmark to the one about the ID place in Texas that's only open the 5th Wednesday of the month or something ridiculous like that?

Industry chatter knew about Weinstein, Spacey and Synger long before the general public. Believe it or not everyone in the entertainment bubble is well connected and gossip is a commodity for us. People know things and they talk. Trust me on this.

Edit: I'm gonna add that earlier this year I was filming a reality show pilot in Los Angeles and San Clemente and got an offer from someone who was trying to connect me with Weinstein's office. The other person I was working with warned against that.
If anyone wants to read more, this has been known for years. http://defamer.gawker.com/tell-us-what-you-know-about-harvey-weinsteins-open-sec-1695071092

Completely off topic but KM I've read bits and pieces about your work situation itt. If you're ever back in LA and looking for set PA or production office work please send me a PM.

Back on topic though, KM is right about the industry knowing about all these guys before any of it blew up. Everyone knew not to get involved with those guys.

That being said, a lot of those same rumor mills trade in fake/exaggerated info too. Rose McGowan herself, for example, has been the subject of some pretty heinous, mysoginistic, and blatantly false conversations I've heard.

Thank you! yeah, I'm trying to save up to relocate. gently caress Michigan.

But you're absolutely right about Rose, etc. It's a double edged sword. Take everything with a grain of salt. The only person I lean towards trusting is Lainey.

Uncertainty is inherently unsustainable. Eventually, everything either is or isn't.

:discourse:

It’s pretty great that Trump just threw his hat back into the sex offender ring right when disgusting powerful men are finally facing at least some consequences.

He’s incapable of keeping his mouth shut. He really should have kept his head down instead of coming to the defense of a serially assaulting pedo, but instead he comes out swinging with full blown Moore support and trying to deny his own creepiness by attacking his accusers.

It’s difficult for me to imagine Trump playing this situation worse other than coming out full crazy and saying “rape is good for women” or something equally insane.

I mean he did just today suggest that a sitting opposition politician had offered him sexual favors in return for donations in the past so he's p close to the 'actually rape is awesome' line.

You already tried the huggy bear schtick on me and it didn't work then either. And stop loving lying you steaming pile of dogshit. You didn't say "maybe we should stop calling people dicks" in a vacuum, you disingenuously equated it with calling women cunts, and then people schooled you on how ignorant and transparently misogyny-motivated that was, while you unleashed steaming coils of bullshit all over the thread.

And then JUST TODAY you whipped out some antediluvian misogyny about Huckabee Sanders because the worst thing your bigotry-addled mind can think to say about a woman presently engaged in dismantling our democracy is that she might not be submissive to her husband enough.

You are a loving oil slick polluting the sea of humanity and I will remind you of that fact every day until you loving die. Go to hell.

Late, but this feels like that testing the waters bullshit. Like when a racist tells a racist joke and laughs it off, then watches to see your response. Oh, you agreed? Let's push a bit more to see what's appropriate. Like, Moore was trying to see what this guy was okay with. Too young? Haha oh what a weird accident, the guy with a history of molesting and hitting on children RANDOMLY found the brothel!

It's legitimately weird that he doesn't get that a normal person would have said "Imagine having to sit around the Thanksgiving table with her" or something similar, implying familial obligation without all the weird baggage that comes from jumping straight towards marriage

"Imagine being her friend", even. She's extremely unpleasant down to her soul
